Douluo Continent: I am the Ice Archer, my ice power is invincible.

Chapter 23 The Prototype of Martial Soul Fusion Skill

Looking at the thousand-year-old soul ring, Xiao Han couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Even before Shui Bing'er began absorbing it, Xiao Han already knew what kind of soul skill it would grant her.

Shui Bing'er's first three soul skills seemed to have been preordained, and even he, as a transmigrator, could not intervene in the outcome beforehand.

Fortunately, this thousand-year-old soul ring can bring her considerable attack power.

After adjusting her state, Shui Bing'er began to absorb the soul ring.

Lin Zhiruo, Xiao Han, and Xue Wu waited quietly to the side.

Xiao Han suddenly said:

"Mom, I broke through to level 33 in the battle just now."

Hearing this, Lin Zhiruo was somewhat pleased.

"Really? For the past month, you've been focusing a lot of your energy on studying that lousy book and have hardly been practicing. I was just thinking of giving you a talking-to."

"Mom, that book is priceless, incredibly precious. One day, I'll prove its worth to you."

"Alright, alright, your primary task is to cultivate diligently. Don't be smug; Bing'er and Xue Wu will catch up with you soon after they absorb their third spirit rings."

Xuewu took over the conversation.

"Dean Lin, just now, I also made a breakthrough."

"You've broken through level 30?"

"Um."

Lin Zhiruo nodded happily.

"That's great. Once Bing'er has absorbed the spirit ring, we'll find a suitable spirit beast for you."

Xiao Han suddenly said:

"Mom, have you noticed that Xuewu and Bing'er are getting more and more in sync? In the battle just now, I seemed to see the prototype of a Martial Soul Fusion Skill."

"A Martial Soul Fusion Skill?"

"Yes, I mentioned it to Bing'er before."

Xiao Han knew that Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu's Martial Soul Fusion Skill would arrive sooner or later.

However, with his early intervention, the sooner the better.

Lin Zhiruo thought for a moment, nodded slightly, and looked at Xue Wu.

"Xiao Han has a point. You and Bing'er are indeed getting more and more in sync. Maybe you can really join forces to complete the Martial Soul Fusion Technique."

"Yes, Bing'er also mentioned it to me, saying it was Xiao Han's suggestion. We plan to study it carefully after we obtain our third spirit ring."

"Okay, we'll study it together then."

Time passed second by second, and Shui Bing'er finally absorbed the thousand-year soul ring completely.

When she opened her eyes again, she could clearly feel that her strength seemed to have broken through to a whole new level.

Xiao Han asked:

"Bing'er, you've finally finished absorbing the spirit ring! How was it? How much has your spirit power increased?"

Shui Bing'er stood up and smiled:

"Just as you said, the thousand-year soul ring seems to have raised my strength to a whole new level. My soul power has increased by more than one level, almost two levels."

"Hmm, it's similar to when I absorbed my last soul ring. You might be able to break through to level 32 before you return to the academy."

"I hope so."

Xuewu said:

"Bing'er, congratulations! You've officially become a Battle Soul Master. By the way, what's your third soul skill?"

"It's an attack skill, similar to the Frostmoon Ice Ring Beast's aura attack. When I activate this soul skill, a burst of icy blue light will form an ice ring emanating from me, dealing damage to the opponent while also reflecting their soul skills and inflicting a freezing effect."

Lin Zhiruo nodded and said:

"Bing'er, this soul skill is pretty good. Compared to the previous two group restriction and defensive skills, this soul skill greatly increases your attack power."

"Yes, thank you for finding me this suitable soul beast."

"Why are you being so polite with me? Isn't this what I should do? I have good news for you, Xue Wu has also broken through to level 30."

"Really?"

Shui Bing'er looked at Xue Wu with a look of surprise and delight.

"Xue Wu, you will soon be able to have your own third spirit ring."

"Um."

Xiao Han looked around; it was still quite bright outside.

"Let's go find some soul beasts before it gets dark."

"it is good."

The four of them continued onward, searching for a suitable thousand-year-old soul beast for Xue Wu.

After two days of relentless searching, the four arrived at a snow-covered forest.

Suddenly, a clear and melodious cry came from not far away, like a note in the cold wind, attracting attention.

"It's Bingyu Xueyuan!"

Lin Zhiruo's keen senses allowed her to immediately detect the unusual aura.

"Come with me quickly."

Lin Zhiruo flashed out, followed closely by Xiao Han, Shui Bing'er, and Xue Wu.

As the distance closed, the pristine white figure gradually became clearer.

A snow kite is soaring through the forest, its snow-white wings flapping as if searching for prey.

Lin Zhiruo sensed that the Ice Whisper Snow Kite's cultivation level was over a thousand years, but less than two thousand years.

That was the soul beast they were targeting on this trip.

"The Ice Whisper Snow Kite can control wind and snow. The one in the air has a cultivation of over a thousand years, making it perfect for Snow Dance."

"Mom, let's deal with this spirit beast ourselves."

"It's circling high in the sky. By the time you get close, it'll probably have already escaped. Do you have any good ideas?"

Lin Zhiruo didn't want to miss out on this suitable soul beast, but she preferred to give the children a chance to train.

Letting them hunt soul beasts on their own will test their courage and strength, and also cultivate their teamwork.

Xiao Han thought for a moment and said:

"Mom, we can outsmart her. We can use one of us as bait."

Xuewu stepped forward.

"Xiaohan's idea is good, I'll be the bait."

Xiao Han and Shui Bing'er exchanged a glance and nodded.

Snow Dance, with the weakest attack power, is indeed more suitable as bait.

"Xue Wu, be careful."

"Yes, everything will be alright, I believe in you."

After Xue Wu finished speaking, she walked out alone.

Xiao Han, Shui Bing'er, and Lin Zhiruo carefully moved through the forest, keeping a proper distance from Xue Wu.

The Ice Whispering Snow Kite quickly spotted the human girl walking alone in the open snow.

Suddenly, it swooped down.

With the flapping of those enormous wings, a blizzard rushed toward Snow Dance at an astonishing speed.

Just as the Ice Whisper Snow Kite swooped down, Xiao Han released his True Ice Bow and Arrow Martial Soul.

"A volley of arrows!"

With a low shout from Xiao Han, a barrage of icy blue arrows rained down on Bingyu Xueyuan.

Ice Whisper Snow Kite has a natural fear of bows and arrows. Faced with the sudden barrage of arrows, it cried out in alarm and flapped its wings to fly away.

Just then, Shui Bing'er descended from the sky and unleashed her third soul skill.

A halo of icy blue light rapidly spread out from her center and slammed into Bingyu Xueyuan.

The powerful impact slammed it into the ground, sending up a cloud of snowflakes.

The Ice Whisper Snow Kite, which had landed, was clearly badly injured; its feathers were disheveled, and its eyes revealed resentment and despair.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xue Wu arrived in a flash, the sharp blade in her hand gleaming coldly in the sunlight, and she mercilessly unleashed that decisive blow.

The sharp blade pierced the chest of the Ice Whisper Snow Kite, ending its life.
